Nicole's checkup at KKH

Phew, Nicole is fine. She doesn't have to put the braces to straighten her bow leg.

We were at KKH this morning to consult Prof Lee of orthopaedics department. He confirmed Nicole's right leg is still slightly bow. However 99% of the time this will usually correct by itself. She has only started walking when she is around 14 months, so it might still take some time for the bone to be straighten. Hence we will go back for review next year. Her legs has got so much better after she started walking, but I still believe getting a professional help as it's better to seek treatment earlier than later.

After the session, we went to taka to shop for a while before heading to Natalie's school to fetch her. Nicole is so happy to be out shopping, she sang as we walked along the aisle, swinging her arms and beaming. She is happiest when we were at the toy dept. Everything literally become hers. "My Pluto" , "My pony bear" ... she played, touched and hugged almost every toys that she came across. She so into shopping, just like her mummi. After so much walking, we head to Starbucks to rest our legs, Nicole plonk herself on the sofa and lay back and relax. She also wants a big cup of coffee just like daddy and mummi.
